Fast Post on the Way Toward a Manga/Anime Column

*Ok, I totally had no idea until now that IDW was getting into manga publishing, and that their first project will be Reptilia, an all-in-one presentation of a 1966 horror serial from Kazuo Umezu, he who would craft the wonder that is The Drifting Classroom about half a decade later. Luckily, heaven created press releases for times like this. It’s out this month (on Halloween!), and will run ya $14.99 for 320 pages. With new cover art by Ashley Wood, who describes the interiors as "An insane story, crazy shit." Yep, sounds right. Sweet preview here.
